Another nice day. Sidney went to Weatherups a.m. borrowed 10 dollars to send his first order for scrolls, he also changed a setting of brown loghorn eggs with William Strickland and went to the station for an ex. order, to mill for feed and to Lewis's and got some groceries. This evening he went up to Burts carried some squash and pumpkin seed to old Mrs. Starr and Claud came back with him and brought a little female rabbit to change for our Adam. Mora caught another sucker this evening. Sidney sent a bundle of garden seed to Adelle by p.p. for me cost 4 cts. I washed today and will try and finish tomorrow.
